re: Elden Ring looks phenomenal.

I did my entire first playthrough this way and realized that I ultimately relied way too much on skills/weapon art (L2) with those huge greatswords and colossal swords. It was definitely fun but was incredibly OP towards the end and then even through my 2nd and 3rd runs.

I was thinking that my mimic tear on the third play through for my original character may be too OP at this point. I was playing around with the idea and decided I was going to see if I could start a new character and use houndstep as my special ability. So basically, my special ability does not give me any offensive aspect, just a much better and more iframes type roll. So I took a confessor base build, beat up enough to get a long sword. I have worked up to get the houndstep by getting lucky with poison and the Night Calvary falling off the bridge. My final sword I will be shooting for will be the Gargoyles' Greatsword which should work with my faith build.
